Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a diesel saloon with a consistent MOT record. The vehicle shows a history of clean passes without defects recorded over the last five years.
Given the clean MOT history, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed at the correct intervals for the 1499cc diesel engine. While no MOT failures are recorded, you should check the service book for evidence of timing belt changes, which are critical for this engine type.
When negotiating, ask for proof of recent maintenance regarding consumables. Although this specific vehicle has had no recorded issues, the wider Mondeo model data indicates that tyres, brake pipes, and brake pads are common failure points across the fleet. Ensure these components have sufficient life remaining.
The 1.5L diesel engine is generally geared towards efficiency, making it suitable for longer motorway journeys. Tax bands and insurance groups will vary depending on the specific trim level of this Mondeo, but as a 2016 diesel, it should fall into a moderate bracket.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically aligned with mainstream large family cars. You should budget for regular diesel-specific maintenance, such as fuel filter replacements and potential DPF considerations if used for short urban trips. Estimated annual running costs are typically moderate.
While this vehicle has a defect-free MOT history, you should still perform a thorough inspection of the braking system. Model aggregate data shows that brake pipes and pads are frequent failure points for the Mondeo, so check for any signs of wear or corrosion.
Additionally, inspect the condition of the tyres, as they are a common reason for MOT failures in this model range. Check the tread depth and look for uneven wear which could indicate suspension issues. Finally, given the diesel engine, listen for any unusual noises from the belt drives during a cold start.
This 2016 grey Ford Mondeo 1.5L diesel has covered 64,906 miles as of its last MOT in September 2025. The MOT history is notably clean, with five consecutive passes and no recorded defects since its first test in 2021. Compared to the model average of 7,919 miles per year, this vehicle has been driven slightly more than the typical example in this dataset.
Aggregate data from over 250,000 vehicles shows a 78% average MOT pass rate for this model, with common issues relating to tyres and brakes.
